Moreover, variations in [Ca2+](ER) (calcium concentration within the endoplasmic reticulum) may play a role in cell growth. However, few studies have focused on the regulation of calcium homoeostasis by prolactin. The present study evaluates the regulation of calcium pools as well as the possible role of [Ca2+](ER) variations as a signal for growth modulation by PRL. We show that PRL stimulates the proliferation of normal SV40 immortalized epithelial prostate (PNT1A) cells with a maximum effect at a dose of 100 ng/ml. We also show that 100 ng/ml PRL increases the [Ca2+](ER) when measured either by indirect quantification with Fura-2AM after application of 1 mu M thapsigargin or by direct quantification with Mag-Fura-2AM within the endoplasmic reticulum. Western blot analysis shows that the SERCA 2b (sarcoendoplasmic calcium ATPase 2b) is over-expressed in PNT1A cells treated with 100 ng/ml PRL for 24 h. A small interfering RNA SERCA 2a/b, used to down-regulate endogenous SERCA 2b expression, reduced both PNT1A cell proliferation and [Ca2+](ER). We thus identify [Ca2+](ER) and SERCA 2b as protagonists in PRL-induced proliferation.
